Oakland Anybody?

This week, I decided to do some homework. The Oakland Raiders, to me, look like the play of the week. Here's why:

1) Oakland is coming off a bye week.
2) KC is playing second of two back-to-back road games.
3) KC is flying across the country after playing in Jacksonville to play Oakland.
4) KC is not stout against the run.

Is Oakland a shit team? YES

Do I think they win by a TD Sunday? YES

what I dont like about them this week is that in thier first meeting this year I remember KC outgained the Raiders almost 2 or 3 to 1 in the first meeting and amazingly lost the game.

That could just mean the Raiders "own" KC, or that they got EXTREMELY lucky that day and KC remembers

That is a pretty interesting trend. Thanks.

I just see this as a game perfectly set up for Oakland to win.
